I just checked and I have 1 kit that's labeled front and 1 that's labeled rr - different part numbers. the front looks like it has 1 extra part, a long cylinder thingie (sorry I don't know what it's called) about 1.5" diameter and 3" long

Thanks for input, Bunker.

Now I'm even more confused... Well, guess I'll better wait for the new kit to arrive, and then compare them in detail. The answer I got from Superior to David's points above, was that it "was news to them", and they still claim they're the same. But Bunker's input kind of prooves the opposite, or...?

mac's a nice guy but he's more of a marketing guy than a gear guy. i'm sure he answered to the best of his knowledge but he is mistaken in this particular situation. you should listen to guys like david and mel - guys who install this stuff for a living
